Ride-hailing service, Yango, has announced the launch of a new Comfort tariff.
The Comfort tariff allows users of the app to select high-quality, air-conditioned cars at a slightly higher price.
This is one of the service’s major announcements since its launch in June 2019.
“Our launch in Ghana is touted as the most successful in all our markets, and the Comfort Tariff is a response to market demands. After a month of operating in Ghana, we examined feedback and needs of our riders and decided to launch the Comfort tariff. As we have done in many other countries, this is yet another way of showing commitment to our customers and we urge Ghanaians to look out for more exciting offers going forward”, the global expansion director of Yango, Musheg Sahakian said.
“Drivers who have very good cars, exhibit good manners and show a lot of care for their vehicles stand a chance to earn even more with Yango”.
Yango has said that the car brands that will be on the list in the Comfort tariff range include Toyota Camry, Toyota Avensis, Kia Cerato, Kia Sportage, Hyundai Elantra, Hyundai Tucson and Mercedes Benz A-Class, among others.
“Yango recognises that our valued customers have different needs when they take a trip with us, so we are gradually increasing the range of choice for our riders, the Comfort tariff offers our riders the option of a slightly higher charge in a guaranteed fully air-conditioned vehicle with special features” Yango General Manager for West Africa, Kadotien Soro also said.
In June, Yango commenced services with its Economy tariff, with ride fares starting from as low as GHS 2. Rides remain affordable with the Comfort Tariff and start from GHS 8 within a 3 km or 8-minute perimeter.
